I deflate the tyres, pick out the glass, stones from the cuts, then fill the cuts with Shoe Goo. Pump up the tyres. All ready.
The Shoe Goo stays flexible and keeps the nicks sealed so more glass, stones don't find a home and eventually wear through.
If I am doing 70kph down a hill, I like to know what condition my tyres are in.
